I do not own Inuyasha.
I Hate Everything About You
Three Days Grace
Only when I stop to think about you,
I know
Only when you stop to think about me,
do you know?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
You hate everything about me
Why do you love me?
Glass was shattered at their feet. Her feet crunched over it without much thought, too much adrenaline in her system to feel it. His, padding over the splinters, did the same, though he wouldn't feel the aftermath of his actions like she would.
"Ran out of things to throw?" He prodded, baiting her in.
A lamp sailed his way, and he easily ducked beneath it. "You're such an asshole, Inuyasha!"
That he was. Inuyasha, all fair-haired and light-eyed was the perfect picture of someone she used to love. She still loved the memories that were not ruined by what he had become, by what he had done to her.
"Are you just figuring that out, Kagome?"
"No, I started to after the first time I caught you cheating with her!"
Ah yes, how many times had it been now? Four, five, maybe even six? That was a story for other times, though.
"Don't bring Kikyo into this!" Inuyasha all but snarled as he stepped towards her, but Kagome didn't flinch.
"The hell I won't! Isn't that what this is all about?" She motioned with her hands around the room at the wreckage. Their poor apartment suffered each time a fight broke out. The couple probably spent more money refurnishing than actually paying rent.
"No, you were trying to go through my phone when I was in the shower. That's what this is all about."
"Can you blame me? After everything you've done to me, I can't help but have just a little bit of a problem trusting you."
Inuyasha stepped towards her again, but Kagome matched his advance with her own retreat this time.
"You must really hate me something awful to do have done this to me."
Before the half-demon could respond, the item that started this particular argument buzzed on the floor beside the overturned coffee table. Kagome looked to Inuyasha and then the vibrating device before both dived for his phone.
Somehow Kagome reached it first and tucked it to her chest. Inuyasha was on top of her in a nanosecond, trying to pry her arms away.
"Give me the damn phone, Kagome!" He ordered. Kagome, however, was always the stubborn one and refused to let go, even with Inuyasha's strength overpowering her own.
"Get off of me!" She hollered, suddenly pushing at his already pulling hands. The two went toppling over, and now Kagome was on top of Inuyasha. The phone flew through the air and clattered to the floor.
"Sit!" She commanded, while climbing off of the squirming half-demon. He crashed to the ground in a heap, cursing her name.
Kagome picked up the phone before running to the bathroom and locking herself in. She only had a few moments before Inuyasha could recover and bust the door down.
A text from a number Kagome recognized very well was on the screen.
I can't wait to see you next weekend! I hope Kagome's out for Sango's bachelorette party like she said she would be. Miss you like always.
Kagome added another check to her already long list titled: 'Inuyasha Caught Cheating.'
In the living room, he heard the telltale grunts of Inuyasha rising from the 'sit' command. Before he could reach her, Kagome was out the door with a slam and shoving his phone under his nose.
"Next weekend, huh? The perfect time for a little rendezvous with your other woman; except for the fact that she ruined it just now. You just can't get over her, can you, Inuyasha?"
With every word she poked him in the chest. His phone was sent soaring into the wall shortly after. Inuyasha's jaw went slack. "I-"
"Don't! Don't you say a damn thing to me!" Now her pokes turned into fists pounding. "I am so done being the stupid girl who stays with a man who constantly cheats on her, who hates her so much that he'd do such a thing!"
Inuyasha grasped her wrists to halt her barrage. "I don't hate you!"
Hot tears rolled freely down her face. Tears of frustration, sadness, heartbreak, anger, hatred. "Well I hate you! I hate you so much, Inuyasha!"
Her words hit something within his chest. Inuyasha stared down at the emotional wreck in front of him with an awed expression on his face. Kagome had never said that to him.
Inuyasha's mouth curled into one of, at first, remorse and then contempt. "You know what, you're right! I do hate you!"
Kagome jerked her hands away from his grip. "Get your hands off of me!"
He grabbed her upper arm then, holding her stare with his own. "No I want to let you hear what you want from me. I hate everything about you! Your stupid gullibility, your laugh that always seems to be too hysterical, your voice when you talk that makes me have a headache, how you can't walk a straight line without falling, how I always have to come to your aid because you can't to do shit on your own, how even after all this time you still stand here like I'm supposed to give a damn whether you stay or go, how-"
A charge of purple light bolted up Inuyasha's hand and into his arm. He recoiled with a cry of pain.
"You bitch, you tried to purify me!"
Kagome wiped her face with the back of her hand. "Add it to the things you hate about me!"
She walked past him to the bedroom, grabbing various bags and stuffing things within them. When she walked to the door to leave, he approached from behind but Kagome stopped his advances with a quick 'sit.'
His phone, even though it had a shattered screen, buzzed wherever it had landed from Kagome's toss. She didn't have to look to know whom the message was from. "I really do hate you." She whispered before walking out.
